MELBOURNE - High hopes of a meaningful Formula One title race will face their first test at the Australian Grand Prix on Sunday as five-times champion Lewis Hamilton and his Mercedes team seek to crush the pre-season optimism surrounding Ferrari.
“Judging from the performance in Barcelona , it looks like we will have a proper fight on our hands in Melbourne.” Having won 11 of 21 races last season, another F1 title would put Hamilton one shy of Michael Schumacher’s record of seven and stir the debate about the greatest racer of all time. “I feel Melbourne is the perfect place to start the championship,” said the 31-year-old German, now in his fifth season with the glamor team.With 2007 world champion Kimi Raikkonen having switched to Alfa Romeo, the team formerly known as Sauber, Vettel’s new partnership with highly-rated Monegasque driver Charles Leclerc will be under scrutiny.
Red Bull, the best of the rest behind Mercedes and Ferrari last season, have ambitions of higher honors after partnering up with Honda engines.
